- PodView now shows LIVE LiveKit participants (updates as people join/leave,
active-speaker highlight) instead of the static roster — no refresh needed.
- "Play beat" button publishes a generated 4/4 beat into the room so every
participant hears the same audio (speaker lights up) — a real connectivity test.
- "Share my screen" is now a deliberate button; joining only connects to the
room (fast/reliable), so a denied/slow screen prompt no longer fails the join.
- Session persisted in sessionStorage with auto-reconnect, so a refresh keeps
you in the room instead of dropping back to the pod list.

Pods are persisted in MongoDB and CRUD'd via /api/pods (list/create/get/
update/delete + add/remove member). Shared Pod reshaped to a persisted entity
(members: string[], description, timestamps) + PodInput. Backend seeds Demo/
Frontend/Backend Pods on first run (Squad -> Pod rename). Frontend replaces
hardcoded teams with live data: PodCard (member chips add/remove, inline edit,
delete, join) + CreatePodForm; App fetches+mutates via API. Removes teams.ts/
TeamCard; gitignores test artifacts.

Replace the single join form with a richer UI: team cards (members as
avatars, repo, description), a member picker, and a post-join PodView showing
pod members (you highlighted) plus a PodMan panel with a slot for live
intervention cards. Adds Avatar/TeamCard/PodView components.
